LeAnn Rimes

LeAnn Rimes is perhaps the most famous native of Pearl, a small town just off of I-20 in Mississippi, and understandably so. With a 14 album discography, enough awards to fill the bed of an F-150 (including two Grammy awards and twelve Billboard Music Awards), and four still-standing records in the entertainment industry (including being the youngest artist to win a Grammy), LeAnn Rimes is one of the most successful country artists of her generation. Entering into the music industry at age 13, LeAnn Rimes has managed to remain a successful recording vocalist through her teen years and into adulthood, a feat few child performers ever achieve.

LeAnn Rimes begun singing in her early childhood, and appeared on a musical variety show at age eight. Her family moved to Garland, Texas where she was discovered by legendary country producer/songwriter Bill Mack, a contemporary of Willie Nelson and Patsy Cline, among other influentials in the country world. Intrigued by the young Rimes’ powerful voice, LeAnn produced a number of independent albums with Mack until she was signed by Nashville-based Curb Records in 1996. Her debut album, Blue, was a six-time platinum certified record by the RIAA. By age thirteen, LeAnn Rimes had become one of the most popular country vocalists in America.

Following the success of Blue, LeAnn released four more albums over the next three years. These albums, including 1997's Unchained Melody: The Early Years and 1998's Sittin' On Top of the World featured standard country faire, with a mix of contemporary songs written for LeAnn and covers of famous country songs, such as her stunning rendition of I Will Always Love You by Dolly Parton. LeAnn has recorded at least one album for every year of her career since save for in 2000, when she was embroiled in a lawsuit with her father, claiming he had been withholding money from her. By 2001 she had reconciled with her father, married former backup dancer Dean Sheremet, and began recording her next album, Twisted Angel, which showed a decided R&B influence.
